Osteoporosis: How does this abnormality affect the tissues functioning?
Hi i tried to google this but i’m not a very good researcher.
How does osteoporosis affect the tissues functioning?
I want to know how the causes affect the tissue and in which ways.
Important: if your using a source
Please could you write paste the source too thanks!
Osteoporosis is the condition whereby there is decreased density of the bone. There is an increased bone resorption compared to bone formation. The function of bone depends on the type – there is cortical bone (hard, heavy and strong) and cancellous bone (lighter, porous, shock-absorbing bone). Osteoporosis affects both. Bones become weaker and are prone to fractures. The cancellous bones are unable to absorb as much impact force as healthy bone. Elderly people are more prone to osteoporosis because of reduced hormones, vit D, etc (read link to web pages below) and are less likely to be steady on their feet and therefore, are more likely to have fractures.
The first link is the one you should read first as it’s straight forward and very understandable. Then progress to the others. The last link tells you a bit more about the physiology and pathophysiology and has a reference list if you want to read more – google scholar the article title to see if you can get it free online
Good luck.
